Knowing that the capital was somewhere before us, we combed the area looking for any entrance, however small, or any device that would grant us access.

I stopped to listen repeatedly along the vector I was assigned – for snatches of sound came and went. These led me to a long crevice where the noise became a steady hum. I called the others over.
Gnoston took one look and said that it must mark the outer wall. Merlin nodded and planted the butt of his staff in the visible crack. A ribbon of golden light ignited and spread like a fire and eventually revealed the outline of the sunken capital.
Yet – still – no entry.
Leaving Merlin’s staff in place we set out to examine the crack more closely.
